Will and I already sketched this out here, it is just that neither of us has been sufficiently motivated to hack a Mediaiwiki plugin to present things the way we want.

Basically, we want to put the glossary tags into the full wikicha articles as metadata, and have the Glossary page index them into tables automatically in the format I demonstrated. One would also want permission from Lew to start with his already extensive glossary of terms.

PHP coders, start your engines.

(Partial credit for a backend type script that parses the data from the full articles and compiles an index in wiki format to be posted manually. This could be done in pretty much any language you like.)

Brandon, what you're saying is total gibberish to most of us, and we can't understand that thread you cited. Can't we have something simple that doesn't take a programmer months to put together? You're aiming so high that we have nothing because it's too ambitious.

K.I.S.S. An alphabetical list within alphabetized subcategories, that gets updated now and then. Heck, I could even do it. And i will if enough people ask me. Since the Japanese glossary is so well done, just a link to that page can substitute for those, and maybe a link for the Chinese terms. And we don't need every variant spelling of every word, maybe the 2 or 3 most commonly used.

Timorously, I tried an edit. 3 Da Hong Pao children that friends in Malaysia recommend. I hope I have not upset anything, I don't know how to insert chinese characters - my references were written down by Malaysian friends. I looked for cut and paste amongst online vendors selling these teas - but to no avail - the characters were pictorial or absent.

Great stuff and perfectly edited, thanks! I honestly didn't know what Bei Dou was, I had just assumed it was a unique but less famous cultivar. The characters could be added in at any time, that is the nature of the wiki.

I looked up a few of the characters from Babelcarp, and in this case the English text you dug up is much more informative.
